The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 93 (Suspiria 2018)
The Uncut Gems PodcastThe Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.
In this episode of the show together with our special guest Rafael Felix we are exploring the thematic landscape hiding beneath Luca Guadagnino's Suspiria. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us wonder whether the political context of the film is needed at all, if it is easy to spot Tilda Swinton in an old man make-up, and how this movie relates to Dario Argento's original. We also talk about motherhood, slow-cooked horror, what it means to be a witch, biblical allegories, the power of love and much more!
